## Caption

The cooler weather and darker undertones (not to mention Halloween just around the corner) can bring with them the unwelcome and sometimes ever-present feeling of loss, letting go, and loneliness. ❤️‍🩹 This week’s Three to Read encompasses the connection between grief and horror, paying tribute to those who feel a little extra heavy during October while also keeping the macabre theme of the month. 🐈‍⬛🎃

These three books explore the way grief can lead to inexplicable decisions and give a spooky twist to otherwise harmless events. Swipe through to get a sneak peek into each book, then click the link in our bio to read the full article. 🔗
